+# Task workspaces and artifact retention
+
+New Tasks allocate a private workspace at
+`$OURS_FLEET_HOME/.ours-fleet/workspaces/tasks/<task-id>` (the user's home is the
+default for `OURS_FLEET_HOME`). New standalone Rooms use
+`.ours-fleet/workspaces/rooms/<room-id>`. A linked Room shares its Task's workspace.
+The absolute path, owner kind/ID and random ownership token are stored in the
+record before directory allocation; `.fleet-workspace.json` proves ownership.
+The path is visible in Task/Room JSON from both CLI and API. A folder of the same
+name without the matching marker is never adopted.
+
+Every newly managed member starts at that exact workspace, including retries.
+An explicit template/member `cwd` remains in the sealed input execution plan as
+source context, but the owned workspace overrides the effective launch cwd.
+Copy or clone required source into the workspace; Fleet does not move or delete
+the configured source directory. Briefings explain this rule. Use separate
+per-agent branches/directories inside the workspace for concurrent edits.
+
+All execution artifacts, dependency checkouts and worktrees belong inside the
+workspace. Clone each repository there first, then use `git worktree add` with
+destinations inside the same workspace. Git's native worktree registry is the
+registry of record. Fleet audits `.git`, `commondir` and reverse `gitdir` links
+before deletion; both the common repository and all registered worktrees must
+be inside the workspace. An external repository's worktree inside the workspace,
+or an internal repository's worktree outside it, blocks deletion. No broad
+`git worktree prune`, branch deletion, reset or modification of unrelated Git
+metadata is performed. Removing the owned repositories also removes their
+complete internal worktree registries, including dirty and stale owned entries.
+
+| Operation | Workspace and execution artifacts | Member runtime evidence |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Complete, fail, cancel | Retained while Task is recorded | Retained in Fleet recovery archives |
+| Linked Room retirement or deletion | Task workspace retained | Retained |
+| Internal standalone Room retirement | Room workspace retained | Retained |
+| Explicit Task deletion | Removed after member retirement | All proven owned retired launches removed |
+| Explicit standalone Room deletion | Removed after member retirement | All proven owned retired launches removed |
+
+Internal room close means retirement, not destructive Task deletion.
+The existing CLI `room close ID ID` remains a deprecated alias for explicit
+`room delete ID ID`: it deletes standalone room-owned artifacts, but always
+retains a linked Task workspace. Its repeated-ID confirmation is unchanged. To remove a Task's
+artifacts, explicitly delete the Task. Cancellation is not deletion. Automatic
+compatibility cleanup of legacy closed Rooms skips records with owned workspaces.
+These choices reconcile close/remove wording with the requirement that completed,
+recorded Tasks retain all artifacts.
+
+Fleet's active member state (briefings, logs, session state and WORKLOG) remains
+under `.ours-fleet/tmp` while supervisors run, then in
+`.ours-fleet/recovery/temporary`. The launch stores the workspace descriptor.
+Explicit deletion first proves managed agents retired, then identifies all
+matching archived launches, including failed and replaced attempts, using the
+workspace descriptor plus role and termination/launch evidence. It preflights
+these archives and atomically transfers them to `.fleet-retired-agents` in the
+workspace before removal. Unrelated archives are not adopted by a name prefix.
+Explicit deletion also erases legacy archives with exact launch/action or room
+provenance, matching private supervisor journals and admission/launch descriptors,
+and the exact retired-launch rows in the global termination journal. It never
+infers ownership from an Agent's shared `cwd`. Artifact removal uses a durable
+manifest, ownership fingerprints and per-entry rename/removal checkpoints, so
+an interrupted deletion can resume without deleting a replacement at the old path.
+Task deletion acceptance receipts exist only during cleanup and are erased after
+settlement (including retry after a crash between Task unlink and receipt cleanup).
+Shared Fleet command audit and lifecycle delivery ledgers have exactly attributed
+target labels, configuration and command arguments removed; unrelated entries are
+preserved. Delivery/deduplication metadata and a content-free erased-resource ID
+registry remain so a running writer cannot resurrect erased content. Infrastructure
+logs without structured ownership, backups, and copies already delivered to other
+identities are external retention boundaries; this is not a claim to erase every
+external copy.
+
+Provisioning serializes Task operation then Room close locks, including bounded
+seat waits, so concurrent retries cannot publish competing members and deletion
+cannot race a member launch. Local published Rooms are reused if the Task link
+write was interrupted. Workspace allocation publishes a marked staging directory;
+restart reuses the durable token. Deletion renames the validated workspace to a
+token-specific sibling tombstone before removal. A crash during removal resumes
+that exact tombstone; the Task record is unlinked last. Before collecting archives,
+Task deletion durably checkpoints verified retirement evidence. Retries verify
+any remaining original archive and still refuse replacement live member state
+or a recreated identity even after the archive has been consumed. Failed deletion
+remains retryable with its recorded error.
+
+Explicit deletion restores missing owner read/write/traversal bits on real
+directories inside a proven owned workspace or retired archive before the Git
+audit and removal. This handles restrictive artifacts left by tests even when
+they belong to the same Unix user. It adds no group/other access, follows no
+artifact symlinks, crosses no mounted device boundary, and never changes the
+owner. Only Git pointer files that the audit must read may gain owner-read;
+hardlinked unreadable pointers are refused to avoid changing an outside alias.
+Permission changes target a verified open inode. Readable foreign-UID directories
+may be traversed unchanged; missing owner access is never repaired for another
+UID. On Linux, traversal and Git pointer reads use pinned directory/file
+descriptors, and a detected pathname replacement stops cleanup before descending.
+Unreadable entries
+use an `O_PATH` descriptor through `/proc/self/fd`; other platforms retain the
+error if they cannot open the entry safely. A restricted workspace root is
+temporarily accessible to verify its exact ownership marker; failed marker
+verification restores its original mode. Partial token-derived deletion
+tombstones resume directory cleanup without re-reading already-removed Git
+metadata. List, show, and ordinary Git audit do not repair permissions.
+
+An accepted deletion is hidden from ordinary task lists while cleanup settles.
+Use `ours-fleet task list --include-deleting --json` (or the API's
+`includeDeleting=true`) to include retained cleanup intents, and `task show ID`
+to see pending/error/retry information. Disappearance from the ordinary list is
+not proof of completed deletion; successful deletion removes the task record
+after workspace and member cleanup.
+Cowork HTTP transport failures record the RPC method, failing stage and a
+bounded error category in the cleanup intent. Credential rejection remains an
+explicit `unauthorized` protocol error. Transport diagnostics do not include
+request bodies, credentials, URLs or raw exception text, and failed mutations
+are never automatically replayed.
+
+Deletion rejects traversal, foreign recorded paths, changed markers and symlinked
+workspace ancestors. Ordinary artifact symlinks are unlinked without following
+their targets. Git control symlinks and foreign pointers are refused. As with
+Fleet's other filesystem lifecycle operations, a hostile same-UID process that
+mutates paths during validation requires OS isolation; application checks are
+not a security boundary against that process. Fleet enforces launch cwd and
+safe deletion; unrestricted agents can still write outside cwd, so the artifact
+placement rule also requires agent compliance and/or filesystem isolation.
+
+## Compatibility and limits
+
+Records from before this feature without `workspace` remain unmanaged. Existing
+agents retain their cwd and exact briefing/fingerprint so restart matching works.
+Fleet never claims an old cwd, an outcome artifact path, or a legacy recovery
+archive as owned merely because it was mentioned by a Task. Create a new managed
+Task and explicitly copy desired artifacts to migrate; deleting a legacy Task
+continues its previous lifecycle and does not delete arbitrary old files.
+
+Changing `OURS_FLEET_HOME` does not silently rebase recorded absolute ownership
+paths. Restore the original state root or explicitly migrate records and files
+with the supervisors stopped; mismatched paths fail closed. Archive transfer
+uses same-filesystem rename and reports a recoverable failure across mounts.
+
+Cowork's remote create operation has no idempotency key in this interface. A crash
+after remote creation but before local Room publication is an existing uncertain
+remote result; this change deduplicates locally recorded rooms and does not claim
+to solve that remote transaction window. Inspect remote room ownership before
+retrying ambiguous remote creation. No services or installed Fleet code are
+changed by building or testing this feature.
+
+
+## Broken provisioning and deletion recovery
+
+Deletion accepts every lifecycle state. Missing temporary directories, identities,
+remote rooms and already-erased artifacts are settled outcomes. Retry the same
+explicit delete after an interruption. A missing local member CID is recovered
+only from a matching authenticated seat in the pinned room (exact invite and
+role, uniquely matched), or a supervisor journal tied to the selected daemon,
+temporary instance and recorded creation action. These sources must agree.
+The recovered CID is persisted before retirement consumes the evidence.
+
+A contradictory CID, replacement launch, ambiguous seat, unreadable/corrupt
+record, or unreachable authority is not evidence of absence. Cleanup retains its
+cursor and reports the conflict instead of deleting an unrelated resource or
+claiming complete erasure. An identity with no recoverable authenticated binding
+requires restoring its actual ownership evidence; a name-only force removal is
+not supported. Room deletion removes the linked Task's dead room/member links and preserves its workspace; use explicit
+Task deletion when the request includes the associated Task and its artifacts.
+
+
+## Retained task agents
+
+Task agents use the common Fleet service and existing runners while remaining
+outside the standalone agent roster. Recovery retains their original identity,
+private runtime owner, launch, working directory, admitted room and supported
+backend conversation. `ours-fleet task recover-members TASK_ID` resumes proven
+stopped members or resets their held restart circuit; it never creates identities
+or invitations. See [upgrade and rollback](fleet-migration.md) for legacy tasks.
+
+Recovery delivers an undispatched assignment once, continues interrupted work,
+and sends no readiness/work prompt to a completed idle conversation. An uncertain
+dispatch gets a continuation instead of replaying the assignment. First-session
+retry requires proof that no readiness/work was submitted; established session
+loss requires restoration of the original context. Task agents require a resumable
+harness. Missing ownership, workspace or room evidence keeps recovery held.
+
+Parent shutdown suspends task agents. Explicit member stop terminally releases
+the exact saved owner and archives its launch; it does not complete the task.
+Finish/cancel/review retain their existing semantics. Task deletion stops and
+unregisters only owned members, verifies identity absence and retries cleanup
+before erasing task/room/workspace resources. Permanent siblings remain intact.
+Standalone CLI/web removal refuses `TASK_MEMBER_IS_TASK_OWNED`; use the owning
+task lifecycle. Lost/corrupt task or launch records require restoring original
+backup evidence or explicit ownership reconciliation before deletion can finish.
+
+## Owner lifecycle notifications
+
+A task mutation commits its notification event in the same atomic task record as
+its effective status. Creation, backlog, provisioning, active, review, done,
+cancelled and failed are covered; block/unblock and deletion are effective changes
+as well. Editing a description, list, block reason or saga checkpoint is not a
+status transition. Each event freezes the task identity, title, old/new status and
+navigation route at commit time, so several transitions between delivery polls
+remain separate. Legacy records begin emitting on their next actual change and
+are not retroactively announced as newly created.
+
+The Fleet manager drains committed task events without requiring the web console
+or restarting agents. Its notification producer uses the installation's existing
+owner-scoped credential; it grants no agent arbitrary-send capability. Missing
+configuration or service failure retains the events. Delivery acknowledgement
+runs under the task lock and removes only the accepted event, preserving newer
+changes. A corrupt/unreadable task record is isolated with a safe warning, so
+other tasks continue. Bounded rotating batches prevent one rejected task from
+blocking the entire sender. The built-in `default` task list is unchanged.
+
+Deleting is announced only after its intent commits. Before unlink, settlement
+prepares retained pending events plus a stable deleted event outside the task-owned
+workspace. The sender admits that retained copy only when the original task record
+is absent; an interrupted or failed unlink cannot announce deletion. The final
+event opens the task list and includes the removed task's identity. Earlier events
+keep their immutable detail routes, which may be absent after explicit deletion.
+
+A service restart or producer crash after acceptance may replay an event; the
+Notifications service must retain its acceptance receipts across read/delete to
+make that replay harmless. Upgrade Notifications alongside Fleet to obtain this
+stronger guarantee. The service's authenticated delivery diagnostics distinguish
+provider acceptance, retry, expired subscription and foreground suppression.
+Provider acceptance is not evidence of actual phone receipt. iPhone Web Push
+requires a supported Home Screen installation and granted device/browser permission;
+reopen the workspace to reconcile an expired subscription and explicitly re-enable
+permission if it was revoked. Every received push must display a notification to
+honor Safari's user-visible push requirement.

+# Managed Fleet CLI from Codex and Claude Code workspace sandboxes
+
+> **Use the generated setup.** Since `managed-cli.setup-v1`, Fleet prepares the
+> native policy for the packaged task workflow itself. The hand-written rules
+> further down remain as background and for operations outside that workflow
+> (for example `room delete`).
+
+## Fleet-generated setup (issue #233)
+
+Declare the workflow on the Agent, or let Fleet add the one key for you:
+
+```sh
+ours-fleet managed-cli setup --enable FleetCoordinator   # adds managed_cli: [task-workflow]
+ours-fleet managed-cli setup                             # generate / reconcile, starts nothing
+ours-fleet managed-cli status                            # compare only, exit 1 when not current
+```
+
+The declaration is explicit configuration. It is never inferred from a role or
+display name, and `--enable` changes no permission. The same preparation runs at
+every agent start (`up`, `restart`, `spawn`, task-room agents), so newly created
+agents need no separate step. `ours-install` runs `managed-cli setup` from the
+exact Fleet it installed after `init` and on update.
+
+An agent invokes a prepared command through the pinned entry form printed in its
+briefing:
+
+```sh
+/abs/node /abs/fleet/dist/cli.js --managed-configuration /abs/fleet.yaml task create --title "..." --backlog --no-room
+```
+
+### What is prepared
+
+| Prepared (runs outside the command sandbox) | Not prepared (stays sandboxed) |
+| --- | --- |
+| `task create`, `task start`, `task finish`, `task block`, `task unblock`, `task review`, `task list`, `task show` | `task cancel`, `task delete` |
+| `room show`, `room members` | `room create`, `room delete`, `room close` |
+| `template list`, `template show`, `template validate`, `config`, `docs` | `spawn`, `ours tools`, `ours call`, `status`, `peek`, `send` |
+| `--help`, `task --help`, `room --help`, `template --help` | service administration, identity and contact commands, oversight |
+
+`task start` and `task finish` provision and retire rooms and agents. That is
+real authority, and it is disclosed by `setup`, `status` and the installer.
+
+### Actual invocation boundary
+
+- The native rule fixes four things: the Node executable, this Fleet CLI, the
+  pinned configuration and the command words. It is an argv **prefix** and admits
+  every trailing option and argument. It is not argument validation, target
+  authorization or per-agent isolation.
+- A later `-c`/`--configuration` naming another file is refused by the Fleet CLI
+  after the process has already started outside the sandbox and been audited.
+  That is Fleet runtime validation, not a native policy denial.
+- The pinned form requires a managed session. Outside one, where no supervisor
+  would audit it, the CLI refuses it. Commands outside the inventory are refused
+  by the CLI even if a hand-written rule would admit them.
+- The supervisor audit, CLI validation, confirmations, SDK credential checks and
+  any outer container or host sandbox are unchanged. There is no blanket
+  Node/Bash/Fleet grant, no sandbox is disabled, and no new transport exists.
+- Compound (`&&`, `;`), piped, redirected, `$(...)`, backslash-escaped and
+  `VAR=value`-prefixed command lines do not match and stay sandboxed.
+
+### Quoting, measured natively
+
+Measured with real Codex 0.160.0 and Claude Code 2.1.289 on Linux:
+
+| Spelling | Codex | Claude |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Single-quoted CLI / configuration path or option value containing spaces | matches | matches |
+| Double-quoted later token | matches | does not match |
+| Quoted **executable** token | never matches | never matches |
+| Unquoted symlinked executable | matches | matches |
+
+Fleet therefore spells a CLI or configuration path containing spaces in single
+quotes (Codex >= 0.160.0 required; older or unreadable versions are reported as
+unsupported for such paths), and requires the Node executable at a path needing
+no quoting. A path containing anything but letters, digits, spaces and
+`_@%+=:,./-` (so no quotes, backslashes, `*` or other pattern characters, which
+Claude's entries would not treat literally), or one that is or resolves
+inside the agent's workspace, is reported as unsupported rather than widened.
+
+### What is written, and ownership
+
+- **Codex**: `<workspace>/.codex/rules/ours-fleet-<id>.rules`, one file per Fleet
+  configuration, carrying a Fleet marker header. It applies to every trusted
+  Codex session in that workspace, not to one identity, and Codex must already
+  trust the workspace: Fleet reports missing trust and never changes it. A file
+  shared by several agents is held in `~/.ours-fleet/managed-cli/registry.json`
+  and removed only when its last holder is gone. Files without the Fleet marker,
+  including a hand-written `ours-fleet.rules`, are never modified; one occupying
+  the generated name is reported as a conflict.
+- **Claude**: `permissions.allow` and `sandbox.excludedCommands` entries in the
+  agent's own Fleet settings overlay, delivered to the bundled ACP adapter. The
+  operator's Claude settings are not modified. Fleet never sets
+  `sandbox.enabled`; if no readable settings file enables the OS sandbox, or a
+  `deny` rule would override the entries, `status` and `doctor` say so.
+- Setup is idempotent. Changed Node/CLI/configuration paths rewrite the Fleet
+  entries; entries for agents or configurations that no longer exist are removed
+  and listed.
+
+### Diagnostics
+
+`ours-fleet doctor` and `managed-cli status` report three separate facts:
+
+| Row | Source | Meaning |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| setup | generated files compared with this installation | static configuration only |
+| session | the role's launch record | whether the last start loaded the current policy, or a restart is required |
+| observed | the supervisor audit ledger | which pinned forms actually completed since that start |
+
+A prepared setup is not evidence of supervisor access. An observed `--help`
+proves only its own audited path; lifecycle forms that were never observed are
+listed as such. `task create --help` is reported as `task create --help`, a help
+call, not as `task create`. Rows from before the current launch are reported as
+historical. The ledger stores the pinned configuration as a fingerprint, never
+as its path; a row pinned to another configuration, or to none that can be told,
+is counted separately and is not evidence for this policy. Rows whose content
+was erased with their task or room keep what they prove.
+
+A launch also gives up what the role held before: opting out, losing support or
+moving to another workspace or configuration removes that role's Codex rules at
+the next start, without touching a file another agent still holds.
+
+### Unsupported combinations
+
+Reported, with the reason, and left exactly as sandboxed as before: Windows and
+other platforms; Hermes and other harnesses; custom ACP or app-server session
+commands; roles declaring `isolation:`; unspellable paths; a Node path needing
+quotes; Codex older than 0.160.0 with quoted paths; and any pinned file the
+agent could replace — inside its workspace or a `harness_options.add_dirs`
+directory, lexically or through a symlink. Codex roles with
+`harness_options.profile` or uninspected `harness_options.config` remain unsupported:
+those can change the native sandbox (for example extra writable roots) in ways
+Fleet does not inspect. The only accepted nonempty config is
+`model_reasoning_effort` with a supported value (`low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`,
+`max`, `ultra`). This includes the config generated by Codex Brain `effort` (#235).
+The chosen effort remains in native launch config and ACP reasoning selection;
+adding any unknown or security-bearing config key still prevents policy setup.
+Native user settings Fleet cannot read are outside this check.
+
+### Qualification
+
+`test/managed-cli-workflow.integration.mjs` runs real Codex / Claude Code through
+Fleet's own adapters and launch preparation against a real supervisor control
+server and audit ledger. A scripted local provider only requests commands; no
+external model, account, production identity or room is used.
+
+```sh
+FLEET_TEST_HARNESS=codex FLEET_CODEX_BIN=/absolute/codex FLEET_TEST_SESSION=codex-app-server \
+FLEET_TEST_TMP_PREFIX=/absolute/private-test-parent/fleet-mc- \
+node test/managed-cli-workflow.integration.mjs
+```
+
+Use `FLEET_TEST_SESSION=acp` for bundled Codex ACP, and
+`FLEET_TEST_HARNESS=claude FLEET_CLAUDE_BIN=/absolute/claude` for bundled Claude
+ACP. `FLEET_TEST_QUOTED=1` installs the CLI and configuration under paths
+containing spaces. `FLEET_TEST_CLAUDE_SANDBOX=0` checks the diagnostics when the
+operator has not enabled Claude's sandbox. `FLEET_TEST_NESTED_SANDBOX=1` is for
+unprivileged containers only. `FLEET_TEST_EVIDENCE=/file.json` records every
+command, exit code and output.
+
+Each run checks: unpinned `--help` denied at the socket; an unrelated write
+outside the workspace still denied by the OS; pinned help; `task create` with
+quoted variable options, `task list|show|block|unblock`, template and plan
+inspection completing with audit rows; `task review|start|finish` and
+`room show|members` reaching the supervisor and Fleet validation (their
+successful run is the lifecycle fixture below); `template show|validate` and
+`docs`; a late
+`--configuration` refused by Fleet; unprepared commands, a missing or different
+pin, preload injection, chaining and redirection staying sandboxed; and `status`
+listing exactly the forms the audit ledger observed.
+
+`test/managed-cli-lifecycle.integration.mjs` is the full stack: the real role
+runner (`ours-fleet _run`) launches the Coordinator, with a real local ours
+daemon and Cowork service (`FLEET_COWORK_CLI=/abs/cowork/dist/cli.js`). From
+inside the command sandbox the Coordinator's session creates a task, starts it —
+a Cowork room is provisioned and a room member agent is really spawned through
+the supervisor — runs `task show`, `room show`, `room members`, `task block`,
+`task unblock`, `task review` and `task finish`, which retires the member and
+the room. Every command is typed in the pinned form and must have a successful
+audit row; the task must end `done`. `FLEET_TEST_HARNESS=claude` puts the
+Coordinator on bundled Claude ACP with its OS sandbox enabled (the member stays
+on Codex). Only the model provider is scripted; the daemon runs without a broker.
+
+Two outcomes of that run are Fleet's existing lifecycle behaviour, not policy,
+and are recorded rather than hidden: the first `task start` can answer
+"readiness is unknown" while the member's session is still starting, and the
+first `task finish` can report that the member's live state disappeared while it
+is still stopping. In both cases the task is already durably in the right state
+and re-running the same command, as its message says, succeeds.
+
+Linux x86_64 host (kernel 7.0, Node 22.23.1, Codex 0.160.0, Claude Code 2.1.289):
+
+| Harness / session | Plain paths | Paths with spaces |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Codex native app-server | PASS | PASS |
+| Bundled Codex ACP | PASS | PASS |
+| Bundled Claude ACP, OS sandbox enabled | PASS | PASS |
+| Bundled Claude ACP, OS sandbox not enabled (diagnostic) | PASS | not run |
+
+| Full-stack lifecycle (real runner, room, spawned member) | Result |
+| --- | --- |
+| Codex native app-server Coordinator, Codex native member | PASS |
+| Bundled Codex ACP Coordinator, Codex ACP member | PASS |
+| Bundled Claude ACP Coordinator (OS sandbox enabled), Codex native member | PASS |
+
+Across repeated runs the re-runs described above occurred zero or one time per
+command; each run prints how many. The spawned member's Agent Template declares
+`managed_cli` itself, and the run asserts what that member's own launch
+prepared: a Codex native member gets its own record, rules in its own workspace
+and a temporary holder; a Codex ACP member with `approval: allow` has no command
+sandbox, so its launch records `not-required` and generates nothing. After
+`task finish` the run asserts that the member's live state, Fleet's room record
+and the Cowork room are gone, and that the member's rules were removed.
+
+Not qualified, and not claimed:
+
+- **macOS.** The generated setup has not been run there. `managed-cli status`
+  discloses this on macOS. The mechanisms are the ones the hand-written policy
+  below used on macOS, but that is not a run of this matrix.
+- **Service-managed supervisors and a real model.** The lifecycle run starts
+  the runner directly (`OURS_FLEET_SUPERVISOR=none`), not through systemd or
+  launchd, uses a scripted provider, attaches no owner to the room and has no
+  broker. The spawned member only starts and stops; it does no work.
+- Paths with spaces in the full-stack lifecycle run (covered by the matrix
+  above), Claude standalone, Hermes, Windows and isolated roles.
+
+A managed Fleet CLI invocation sends `fleet_audit_begin` to the supervisor's Unix
+socket before parsing commands, including `--help`. A socket that exists and is
+owned by the current user can still return `connect EPERM` from a restricted
+command sandbox. This is not evidence that the supervisor is down or Fleet needs
+reinstallation. Check filesystem permissions too: `EACCES`/`EPERM` alone does not
+identify which policy denied access.
+
+## Background: hand-written native execution rules
+
+Keep the role's `approval: auto`, `filesystem: workspace`, and `unattended: deny`.
+For an operator authorized to manage rooms, explicitly approve the necessary CLI
+operations using Codex's standard execution rules. A matching operation executes
+outside Codex's command sandbox, retaining the normal CLI, supervisor audit,
+configuration, credentials, and confirmation checks. Other shell commands remain
+sandboxed. This does not override an outer container or host sandbox.
+
+In the **trusted workspace** create `.codex/rules/ours-fleet.rules`, substituting
+absolute paths to the installed Node binary, installed Fleet CLI, and approved
+configuration. Example for an operator allowed to delete rooms in this Fleet:
+
+```python
+prefix_rule(
+    pattern=["/opt/node/bin/node", "/opt/fleet/dist/cli.js", "room", "delete",
+             "--configuration", "/srv/fleet/fleet.yaml", "--json", "--"],
+    decision="allow",
+)
+```
+
+Invoke exactly that prefix, followed by the room ID and the confirmation ID:
+
+```sh
+/opt/node/bin/node /opt/fleet/dist/cli.js room delete --configuration /srv/fleet/fleet.yaml --json -- ROOM_ID ROOM_ID
+```
+
+To authorize only one room, append both concrete IDs to the rule's pattern.
+The `--` terminator prevents trailing arguments from changing the fixed options.
+Do not approve the entire Node executable or the entire Fleet CLI. Do not add
+`spawn`, `ours call`, arbitrary scripts, or configuration overrides to this rule.
+A separate fixed `[NODE, CLI, "--help"]` rule can authorize managed help.
+
+Restart the Codex session after changing rules. Native Fleet and bundled Codex ACP
+use the same workspace rules. Codex must trust that workspace; configure trust
+through the normal operator workflow rather than enabling it from an agent tool.
+No runtime services or installed packages need restarting for this policy change.
+
+## Boundaries
+
+- A rule grants the named operation real authority. The repeated room ID is CLI
+  confirmation, not a substitute for user authorization.
+- Rules apply to trusted Codex sessions in this workspace, not exclusively to one
+  Fleet identity. They depend on the launcher's inherited environment. Keep the
+  executable, CLI installation, credentials, and configuration outside the
+  agent-writable workspace. Do not treat this as an identity isolation feature.
+- User/organization denied-read rules or an outer sandbox may forbid execution
+  outside the command sandbox. These restrictions take precedence; do not remove
+  them implicitly to make Fleet work.
+- On tested Codex 0.159.0, quoting the executable/script tokens prevented the rule
+  from granting execution outside the sandbox. For hand-written rules use the
+  canonical simple-token invocation above. The generated setup qualifies quoted
+  script and argument paths on Codex 0.160.0; see "Quoting, measured natively".
+- Merely enabling network inside the Linux command sandbox was insufficient:
+  its user namespace maps ancestor directory owners to UID 65534, which the SDK's
+  strict credential ancestry checks reject. Approved CLI execution avoids that
+  namespace; SDK security checks remain unchanged.
+
+## Reproduction and regression checks
+
+The [issue author’s validation matrix](https://github.com/adapt-toolkit/ours-fleet/issues/231)
+used Codex 0.159.0 on macOS/Linux, native and ACP. Those results are not new runs
+on every revision of this fixture. Build Fleet and supply the complete installed
+Codex distribution (including its adjacent helper binaries) and a built Cowork CLI.
+Run from the Fleet repo:
+
+```sh
+FLEET_CODEX_BIN=/absolute/codex \
+FLEET_COWORK_CLI=/absolute/cowork/dist/cli.js \
+FLEET_TEST_SESSION=codex-app-server \
+FLEET_TEST_TMP_PREFIX=/absolute/private-test-parent/fleet-ipc- \
+node test/fleet-cli-permissions.integration.mjs
+```
+
+Repeat with `FLEET_TEST_SESSION=acp`. The test parent must be writable, outside
+`/tmp` and outside the tested workspace: ACP may allow `/tmp` independently.
+Omit `FLEET_TEST_SESSION` to test standalone `codex exec`.
+
+The local scripted Responses provider supplies only command requests. Real Codex,
+Fleet adapters, CLI, control socket, audit store, daemon, and Cowork perform the
+operations. No external model or production identities/rooms are used. Child processes are stopped and temporary state is removed afterward. To retain
+fixture evidence, set `FLEET_TEST_KEEP_ARTIFACTS=1`. The fixture allowlists its
+launcher environment and uses a disposable HOME; no provider keys, preloads, or
+user configuration are inherited.
+
+Checks: baseline network-denied `--help`; permitted help; wrong confirmation
+leaves the room intact; correct confirmation deletes the actual empty test room
+from Fleet and Cowork; caller audit remains present; unrelated outside-workspace
+write, `NODE_OPTIONS` injection, and a different configuration remain denied.
+The fixture uses `OURS_FLEET_SUPERVISOR=none`: launchctl/systemd workers and deletion
+of a live room containing agents are outside this test's coverage.

+
+## Claude Code: the same CLI path, different permission settings
+
+The issue author verified Claude Code 2.1.284 on macOS and Linux, both standalone and through
+Fleet's bundled Claude ACP adapter (0.63.0). Fleet `approval: auto` maps to
+`acceptEdits`, which is not blanket permission for Bash. Fleet's `filesystem:
+workspace` also does not by itself enable Claude's OS sandbox. Explicitly enable
+it and configure both the execution exclusion and the command permission:
+
+```json
+{
+  "sandbox": {
+    "enabled": true,
+    "failIfUnavailable": true,
+    "allowUnsandboxedCommands": false,
+    "excludedCommands": [
+      "/opt/node/bin/node /opt/fleet/dist/cli.js room delete --configuration /srv/fleet/fleet.yaml --json -- *"
+    ]
+  },
+  "permissions": {
+    "allow": [
+      "Bash(/opt/node/bin/node /opt/fleet/dist/cli.js room delete --configuration /srv/fleet/fleet.yaml --json -- *)"
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Use operator-controlled Claude settings. The fixture uses an isolated settings
+file delivered with `--settings` (standalone) or Fleet's supported settings overlay
+metadata (bundled ACP). It does not modify the user's settings. As with the Codex
+rule, append exact room IDs instead of `*` to restrict this to one room.
+
+`excludedCommands` controls placement outside the command sandbox;
+`permissions.allow` authorizes the action. Neither should be replaced with global
+`bypassPermissions`, blanket `Bash(*)`, or an exception for all Node programs.
+An external sandbox or managed policy can still override this configuration.
+
+Linux inside an unprivileged Docker container additionally needed
+`sandbox.enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true`: otherwise bubblewrap failed to mount
+`/proc` before any CLI command ran. This documented setting bind-mounts the
+container's existing `/proc`, weakening that part of the nested isolation. It is
+specific to the nested test environment, not an unconditional Linux requirement.
+The tests still prove Unix-socket denial and filesystem write denial. The outer
+Docker seccomp profile was unconfined to support nesting, as in the Codex tests.
+
+Run the same integration scenario with:
+
+```sh
+FLEET_CLAUDE_BIN=/absolute/claude \
+FLEET_COWORK_CLI=/absolute/cowork/dist/cli.js \
+FLEET_TEST_TMP_PREFIX=/absolute/private-test-parent/fleet-claude- \
+FLEET_TEST_SESSION=claude-acp \
+node test/fleet-cli-permissions.integration.mjs
+```
+
+Omit `FLEET_TEST_SESSION` for standalone Claude. In the nested Linux fixture add
+`FLEET_TEST_NESTED_SANDBOX=1` explicitly. A scripted local Anthropic Messages/SSE
+provider requests the real Bash call and captures the actual tool result. The
+negative baseline grants Bash permission without an exclusion and verifies that
+the supervisor socket is still blocked. The write probe is separately authorized
+inside the sandbox; it must execute and report an OS denial, not merely fail an
+approval prompt. No real model/account credentials are used.
+
+All other limits above apply: empty room, isolated audit/control server,
+`supervisor=none` workers, and adapter coverage rather than full production runner.

+
+
+## Port validation for issue #231
+
+The separate upstream port was rerun on Linux amd64 in a disposable Node 22.23.1
+container with Codex 0.160.0 and Claude Code 2.1.289:
+
+| Harness execution | Result |
+| --- | --- |
+| Codex native app-server | PASS |
+| Bundled Codex ACP | PASS |
+| Claude standalone | PASS |
+| Bundled Claude ACP | PASS |
+
+Each complete run checks actual socket denial, permitted help, wrong-confirmation
+refusal, deletion of its own empty Fleet/Cowork room, preserved caller audit, and
+OS denial of an unrelated write, preload injection, and alternate configuration.
+The scripted providers and all state are local; external network access is disabled.
+For these nested tests only, the outer Docker seccomp and AppArmor profiles were
+unconfined and Claude used `enableWeakerNestedSandbox: true`. No host policies or
+production services were changed. The inner command sandbox remains enforced by
+the negative checks. These are container results, not a qualification of normal
+host settings. Initial missing-helper and outer-policy failures were retained
+alongside the passing runs; they are not counted as passing tests.
+
+The port also passed 88 diagnostic/conversation/audit unit checks, a build, and an
+npm package dry-run check for this document. The diagnostic preserves the prior
+error kinds and audited CLI failure before parsing. This does not claim a fresh
+macOS run, full production runner coverage, or live-agent room deletion.
